Pareto Analysis of Unreasonable Prescriptions for Heparin Anticoagulants
OBJECTIVE To analyze the main factors of unreasonable prescriptions for heparin anticoagulants in our hospital using Pareto analysis and provide references for rational use of heparin anticoagulants.METHODS Da-ta on unreasonable prescriptions for inpatient heparin anticoagulants in our hospital in 2023 were collected for retro-spective analysis.The main factors,secondary factors,and general factors of unreasonable medication prescriptions were analyzed using the Pareto chart method.RESULTS Among 11,598 prescriptions,four types of unreasonable prescriptions were identified.Inappropriate indications(with a cumulative proportion of 54.44%)were the main fac-tor;among different drug categories,enoxaparin had the highest rate of unreasonable prescriptions(with a cumulative proportion of 45.58%)as the main factor,followed by heparin sodium injection(with a cumulative proportion of 85.54%)as the secondary factor.CONCLUSION Applying Pareto chart analysis can conveniently and quickly i-dentify the main and secondary factors of unreasonable medication prescriptions,providing a basis for rational drug use and medical intervention.
